You can write me an Email and I will then send you a copy of the debug version.

Best regards,

Thank you amyren and sebastien. Looking forward to testing this fix!

Hello all,

I've implemented this fix in the tool.
The default installation directory will now be built like this :
Operating System Drive \ EnigmaTV
Like C:\EnigmaTV

If Enigma-TV was still installed before, the tool will simply copy the existing folder C:\Users\ABC\EnigmaTV into C:\EnigmaTV
If new install, it will download all into C:\EnigmaTV and check files integrity.

Hope that is ok to fix your problem.

You can Email me at info@enigma-tv.com if you want to test a debug version.

Best regards,

Thanks a lot for your explanation Amyren.
I will work on the tool to let the user change the default install directory but in the mean time your procedure cover the issue.

Best regards,

Citation :

There are many guides about this if you use google.

But the short summary on how I did it:

1. Create a new administrator account. (control panel, user account, add new user)

2. Log off your current account

3. Log in to the newly created account

4. Go to user management again, and change the user name of your own account. Choose a name without any special characters.

5. Then open file manager and locate your user folder, usually C:\Users"your name" and change the name of your folder to the same as the new name you did choose for your account.

6. Open Regedit. Go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList\
Below that structure there will be a few more "folders" named something like S-1-5-x etc.
Choose the one that is for your account. You will se your account name on the right side, at the ProfileImagePath
Right-click on ProfileImagePath and choose Modify.
Change the path to match the change you did for your user folder.

Thats it, log out, and log into your account again. Hopefully everything should be working now.
If all is ok, you can delete the admin account your created earlier.

I am having the same problem and look forward to a solution.

In the meantime could you please explain in little more detail how you solved the problem Amyren?

Thank you

Hi,

Thanks for your analyse, I will include such an option and check in the next release.

Best regards,

Enigma-TV gets installed into the C:\users\my_user folder
If your user name contain non-internet valid characters, like norwegian æ, ø, å you will be unable to log in via the client. The android client will simply refuse to connect, but if you try to log in via the webinterface you will get an error message that c:\users\my_user\enigma-tv/index.php is not found. You will then discover that the writter username here is a bit different from the actual one.

I had to rename my user name and folder name, and some regedit settings before I could get Enigma-TV to work on my win8 pc because of this.

I think this could be solved by letting the user choose the path for installing Enigma-TV. Or change the default install path to something other than the user folders.
